Overview

When bookish fourteen-year-old Madi visits her grandparents' Florida beachside condo for the summer, she expects white sandy beaches, glorious sunsets, and languid days. A casual glance out the window at the next-door pool discovers Matthew, a rising swim star turned weekend lifeguard, whose calm turns heroic when it counts. The beach is soon abuzz-about the rescues, about the handsome lifeguard everyone's watching. Madi finds herself pulled toward the boy whose smile feels like sunlight after a storm. As the days of summer dwindle, an approaching hurricane threatens their budding love with tragedy. Rising to the challenge, a courageous response leads to a daring rescue and an emotional confession, but nothing stops summer from ending. Years pass, and Madi and Matthew meet once more at college. Who they were that one magical summer hangs between them. Can the young adults navigate the rough waters of doubt? Can Madi change from the girl swept away on the waves to someone who writes her own story? Passionate and honest, Some Love Lasts explores young dedication and courage in the face of danger-and the pursuit of love.
